Read your interview with him again when playing the album, thank you so much for that, it's a very useful resource on an aspect of the Dutch Jazz scene that hasn't been covered that much elsewhere Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rdavenport Posted April 29 Report Share Posted April 29 (edited) Today I bought a copy of Mark Murphy's "Rah" from a charity shop. This an album I bought on CD in around 1995, which I'd never heard on vinyl until today. I could probably sing every note of that CD, so often did I listen to it all those years ago. As such, I was most surprised to hear that "My Favourite Things" on vinyl contains several choruses not present on the CD - new choruses referencing Miles, Coltrane, Anita O'Day, Basie, Cannonball etc. I wonder why these were cut from the OJC CD? What the heck? There is another track on the LP which didn't make it to CD EDIT to add - all explained by Wikipedia - lyrics considered "inappropriate" by Richard Rodgers...

Yeah, I feel like it is pretty unique and I was so glad to get to know Herbert a bit. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HutchFan Posted April 30 Report Share Posted April 30 Next up: Marc Johnson - Bass Desires (ECM, 1986) One of Ethan Iverson's substack posts just showed up in my inbox. The gist of the post is a long interview with Peter Erskine about the making of Second Sight, the second Bass Desires album -- an album that isn't in my collection, so I'm playing the first one instead -- and Gary Peacock's Guamba, which was made immediately after Second Sight. FASCINATING stuff. And there's a bunch of excellent photos too. Don't think I've ever seen the inside of Rainbow Studios in Oslo before. An aside: I know that Iverson comes in for a lot of stick 'round these parts. Frankly, I don't get it. At all. I don't always agree with the guy -- nor should I (or should anyone else, for that matter!) -- but it's clear that he LOVES the music. From my perspective, that's the most important thing. . . . Plus, he uses his insider's status to get to get interviews that are unlike any others. And the dude can write. He's putting himself out there, sharing personal responses to the music. I wish MORE musicians had the (writing) chops, the inclination, and the cojones to do it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jlhoots Posted April 30 Report Share Posted April 30 FWIW, I saw / heard a solo concert that Iverson did in Albuquerque recently & it was excellent. His interaction with the audience was compelling. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But I think his solo work -- and sideman gigs with Tootie and Jabali -- are even better. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
